19 Crimes Severed Red Blend

The SEVERED RED BLEND by 19 Crimes hails from the sun-drenched vineyards of South Eastern Australia, offering a red wine experience that intrigues with its depth and character. This blend is rooted in a region celebrated for its diverse terroir, which imparts a distinctive personality to its wines. At 13.5% ABV, this red blend presents a harmonious balance between vibrant fruitiness and structural elegance. Expect a medley of ripe dark fruit flavors, typical of red blends from this area, with nuances of blackberry and plum taking center stage. The body is generous yet smooth, supported by well-integrated tannins that lend a velvety texture to every sip. A moderate acidity keeps the wine lively and refreshing, while subtle hints of oak provide a gentle backbone to its layered profile. The finish is smooth and lingering, echoing the wine's complex flavor profile. When it comes to pairing, SEVERED RED BLEND's fruit-forward nature and balanced structure make it an excellent companion for a variety of dishes. Consider serving it alongside grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes, or a rich mushroom risotto, where its flavors can complement and enhance the meal. For optimal enjoyment, serve this wine slightly below room temperature, around 60-65 degrees Fahrenheit. While decanting isn't necessary, it can benefit from a brief aeration to open up its aromas and flavors. To fully appreciate its character, pour SEVERED RED BLEND into a large-bowled red wine glass that allows the wine to breathe and reveal its aromatic complexity. While this is a wine meant to be enjoyed in its youth for its fresh and vibrant qualities, its balanced structure suggests it could also develop further depth with short-term cellaring. Whether newly opened or after a bit of aging, this red blend offers a compelling taste of Australian winemaking prowess, crafted by 19 Crimes with a nod to the past and a toast to the present.
